Photochemistry and Spectroscopy Department
Institute of Physical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences
The following experimental techniques/instruments are available:
- electronic absorption: Shimadzu UV 3100 and 2700 spectrophotometers
- circular and magnetic circular dichroism: JASCO J-1500, OLIS DSM 17 CD spectropolarimeters
- luminescence: Edinburgh FL 900, Fluorolog-3, homebuilt Jasny mutifunctional and compact spectrofluorimeters
- time-resolved absorption and emission in the nano-, pico-, and femtosecond range
- single molecule measurements: homebuilt optical microscope, Renishaw InVia microscope
- IR spectroscopy: Bruker Vertex V70, Nicolet Magna 560
- Raman and SERS: Renishaw InVia Raman microscope
- matrix isolation
- supersonic jet UV/VIS/IR spectroscopies with fluorescence and mass spec detection
Many unique homebuilt instruments have been constructed over the years, designed mainly by dr Jan Jasny
Instruments for ultrafast time-resolved electronic, Raman, and IR spectroscopy are being designed and built at the Laser Centre
